Opis

Mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining work in this important re-issue of "Gold Placers of California." Unavailable since 1923, this publication was originally compiled by the California Bureau of Mines. Included are insights into the history of placer gold mining in California, ranging from using a simple gold pan, rocker box or sluice box, right up to the largest of hydraulic mines. All of the major placer gold mining areas are covered in detail, complete with the methods that were used to mine them. This hard to find, previously out of print publication will offer valuable insights for those who are looking for gold and other valuable minerals in California or to those who are interested in mining history. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As such, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
